Chapter 176 There Was Still No Peace for Her
Colin was a bit dumbfounded. But learning that his mother had had a car accident, he couldn't sit still
anymore. He immediately put on his clothes and got out of bed.
His phone was left on the bed and the driver's voice came out through the speaker.
"Mr. Levine, Ms. Fletcher hoped that you could go take care of your girlfriend. She was also injured and
should be at the police station now. Ms. Fletcher said you didn't have to go to see her."
Abbey originally wanted to flirt with Colin, but her body froze when she heard the word "girlfriend".
She hadn't seen Colin's mother yet, so that should not be her.
She looked at Colin with doubt, but the latter just wanted to rush to the hospital now. Moreover, he
finally learned about what the "girlfriend" referred to from the driver.
It was Perry.
Well, he once asked Perry to pretend to be his girlfriend.
But he didn't have time to explain this. He put on his coat, leaned forward, and pecked on Abbey's lips.
"Honey, be good and wait for me. I need to go out."
Abbey was somewhat unwilling. Moreover, she was a very sensitive woman and she'd been afraid that
Colin's mother would force them to separate after learning that she didn't like the women around him.
"Colin, can I go with you?"
Colin directly refused, "I'll take you to see her next time. But not this time. I'm leaving."
Abbey moved her lips wanting to say something, but she didn't know what she should say.
The room immediately became empty. She was just a junior employee a receptionist in the Fletcher
Group. Establishing a relationship with Colin was just an incident, but she really liked him.
She couldn't wait to let Nancy know about her. But then she remembered Penny's words. Moreover,
Penny was Colin's good friend.
Abbey put on her clothes, went to Penny's door, and rang the doorbell.
However, no one answered.
She didn't want to leave and just waited before the door.
After two hours, Penny finally returned.
She'd just returned from the police station and prepared to dress up herself and then go to see Nancy.
But as soon as she walked out of the elevator, she found Abbey standing before her door. Penny
immediately got a headache.
Abbey, however, had her eyes lit up when she saw Penny.
"Perry!"
She strode over and called anxiously.
"I heard that Colin's mother had a car accident. He's already come to the hospital. Can you please help
me find out her patient number? I want to go see her."
Originally, Penny planned to dress up herself before going to the hospital. But now Abbey came to her.
If she went to the hospital with Abbey and then Nancy said something to her, probably Abbey would
also hate her.
She was now her neighbor and it would be great trouble if she kicked up a fuss later.
Penny immediately felt her life so unfortunate. Even if she'd moved out of the Hills Villa into this place,
there was still no peace for her.
But if she rejected Abbey directly, she would be put into an embarrassing situation when she got along
with Colin. After all, Abbey was Colin's girlfriend.
Penny raised her hand to rub the center of her eyebrows.
"I'll tell you after getting the patient number. Please give me your phone number."
The two exchanged phone numbers at the door.
Penny felt very tired when she returned to her bedroom. Her mind was buzzing. After all, Norah was
not the only one to be scared.
She filled the bathtub, wanting to go to the hospital to apologize to Nancy after taking a bath.
However, she directly fell asleep in the bathtub.
She only woke up in a daze when she heard the knocks from the door. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
She grabbed the clothes aside and put them on. Then with a dizzy head, she went to the living room.
The person was still knocking on the door. Penny tightened the belt of her robe and went to open the
door. Then she saw Abbey standing outside.
'Perry, it's late. When will you get the patient number?"
Penny was so dizzy that she could barely see her face. She used her last strength to call Colin and told
Abbey after getting the ward number.
Abbey thanked her and then quickly went downstairs. It seemed like she was heading to the hospital.
Colin sensed something wrong with Penny's voice when they talked on the phone.
"My mom said you were also hurt. Have a good rest. Her situation is not serious. Yep, just a mild
concussion. And she's about to leave the hospital."
How would Penny not go to see Nancy? After all, she was partly responsible for the car accident.
"Mr. Levine..." Perry coughed, "I'll be there soon."
"Perry, are you feeling unwell? Don't force yourself. I'm worried that you might faint halfway through
driving."
"I'm fine."
Seeing that he couldn't stop him, Colin said, "My cousin is also coming over. Your house happens to be
in the middle of the Fletcher Group and the hospital. I'll ask him to give you a ride. Don't drive by
yourself."
Penny wanted to refuse it, but when she opened her mouth, a string of coughs went out. When she felt
better, she found Colin had already ended the call.
She anxiously dialed him again but was only responded with a mechanical female voice that reminded
her he was on another call. It seemed like Colin had called Orlando.
